ANYONE trying their services, are in for a .... !!!!!BIG SHOCK!!!!!. Their MO is presenting a very competitive quote with the promise of good quality material, work, lead-time and more..., asking for a 70% deposit, and on receipt of the deposit using any inconceivable excuse not to deliver the work, punting even more insane reasons not to refund your deposit. Like the other victims here, I also had to take legal action to try and recover my deposit, which I never managed to achieve due to their very clever, ********* and ******** intent to stay out of the legal fraternity's reach. They were eventually black-listed. Do yourself a MASSIVE favour and read all the reviews here and rather just STAY AWAY and support one of the many other honest and hardworking folks looking for projects out there.....

Stay as far away from this company as possible. I gathered a few quotes to do some additions to my house and build a new carport and Daniel responded on FB. He gave me a quote on WhatsApp and seems like a really nice guy trying his best to be accommodating to get the job even willing to match any other written quote. I received a quote R6000 less and he matched it immediately because he was desperate for the work. After accepting the quote he called me constantly wanting to know when the deposit will be payed as he needs to order materials in order to start on Monday. I made an immediate payment for 50%. The weekend before he was supposed to start the messages started coming in about how he forgot to add this and that to his quote and it will be an extra cost, which started to make me frustrated already and I said we will discuss once he starts the job. Monday came and went and when he didn't show I phoned and he informed me he doesn't have any laborer's to help him as they are not back from a weekend away yet and suggested that I get someone else to start the job and he will continue once his workers are back. When I asked about when the materials will be delivered and if he will send me an invoice to compare the order to the quote and delivery he responded with what he orders and where is none of my business. Besides he has not placed any orders yet. This I immediately rejected and by now I was very frustrated and told him to decide if he wants to continue with the job or not and let me know. Daniel then decided to stop replying to my calls and texts, my father finally got hold of him and then Daniel said they felt humiliated by me and no longer wish to continue with the job and he will refund me the deposit immediately. After 24hours I followed up on the return of the deposit and he sent me back only 40% saying that the other 10% I forfeit due to cost to company and cancellation even though he himself is the one that canceled. Both me an my father have now been blocked and have sought legal representation.

I contacted Joey Marx on Facebook after she advertised on I love Northcliff for maintenance work. She referred me to her son Daniel Claasen. I contacted him to come out and give a quote to remove nails in a wall, patch and repaint. I had to ask on numerous occasions for the quote. When the quote was received I approved it and paid 50% deposit immediately and arranged for a date and time for the repairs to be done. Daniel arrived 1.5 hours late. The nails were removed and he patched the walls. He then stood around for another 2 hours waiting for the filling to dry. He asked me extremely inappropriate questions about my marital status so I decided to wait outside for him to finish. He then stood outside my apartment arguing with a previous client about work done as the client (an estate agent) is suing him for bad work done. When he was done with his call I asked him how long it will still take as he said no longer than an hour but he has been standing around for 2 hours. He said he doesn't know. I suggested that he cleans up and come back on another day to finish off. He had messed on my wall unit and the floors. He then went into a detailed explanation about his phone call and that he is being sued for bad work and he will not stand for it. I proceeded to do the cleaning. The marks did not want to come out of my wall unit. He did not bring the appropriate material to avoid messing. When I let him out of the complex he begged for the rest of the money as he walked there with his helper and they are desperate for money. I felt bad and paid him. During the following week I asked on numerous occasions when he will return to complete the job. He avoided me. After the 4th day of asking him he responded and said he will come back when it suits me. I suggested Saturday. He arrived an hour early on Saturday. On his way there he phoned and said he forgot the paint and needs to go buy paint. He arrived with a white undercoat and said it would be perfect. The holes were as big as a R5 piece. He proceeded to paint A3 sizes over and around the holes. The paint was yellow and very noticable on the walls. He said the colour will change. After the colour did not change after 2 hours I sent him a picture of the walls. He said its a factory fault with the paint and he will email them immediately and copy me. I insisted that he comes back immediately and fix it. I sent his mother the same pictures. She insisted it was a factory fault with the paint and there is nothing they can do as they have finished the job. She then posted on I love Northcliff that I am a very difficult client and it is no wonder I am divorced. She insisted it was a factory fault with the paint. Then she changed her story and said it was undercoat and they were coming back to finish the job but as I was now upset they refuse to come back. All that needed to be done was small holes to be repaired. I now have to pay a painter to come and repaint all the walls.

DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY. Theives!! I paid a 50% deposit (R2300) for the manufacture of a dinning room and coffee table on the 27th Februaruy. I was then asked to pay an additional R1000 to cover the costs of the materials. This made me uncomfortable so I asked for regular updates and confirmed I needed them delivered on the 26th March. I have been lied to and the ghosted on Whatsapp and have not received the tables or a refund that I have now requested.
